Description
Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CS38013M
Carlyle's CS38013M is a 13mm six-point socket for 3/8in drive in the shallow pattern, with a full polished chrome finish and deep-rolled vertical knurling that the maker says makes it quick to identify. It fits a standard M8 nut, one of the most common fixings on a car, and the radius-cornered opening is gentle on bolt heads.
Good to know
- Why is six-point the safer 13mm? Many 13mm bolts are on parts exposed to road salt and grime. Six flats drive on the sides of the head, so it is less likely to slip and round a corroded one.
- How do I break a tight 13mm bolt? Use a breaker bar or a longer ratchet with a steady pull, not a jerk. If it still won't move, apply penetrating oil and give it time to soak in.
- Can I use it on an impact gun? No, keep chrome sockets for hand tools; they can crack or shatter under impact blows.
Which one?
For an impact gun choose the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 13mm 6 Point Standard Impact Socket (CIS3813M); for breaking tight 13mm bolts by hand, the Carlyle 3/8 Drive Breaker Bar 200mm (CFH38).
